It appears that Trump did not stay in jail. It appears that he was just booked, and he’s casually going around the country yet again. I’m tired of this shit-show. I just want some free time to enjoy my COMPUTER MUSIC / FUTURE MUSIC magazines, and spend time on FL STUDIO / ABLETON LIVE / LOGIC PRO. But these conditions make them almost impossible. I need a short sabbatical in France, I swear to God. Please end this Trump nightmare. I know it has been impossible to put him in jail for being a mobster, but you can put him away on tax crimes.
